Default Re: Can anyone solve this?

This isn't too compelling. Introducing a new pattern in the final row is confusing. Even if it were 4/2/1,8/4/2,4/2/x it would be a stretch. 16/8/4,8/4/2,4/2/x or 4/2/1,4/2/1,4/2/x would be good. But 4/2/1,8/4/2,3/2/x? A general trend toward a decrease in the number of shapes isn't enough of an indication of the pattern to represent a definite solution. 1 probably is the correct answer, but I think the puzzle is poorly-designed.
